Did anybody watch that? I've been watching those for year, dreaming about when the Hawks would finally get one. Brought a tear to my eye, made me want to watch some football. I can't believe the game is less than 24 hours away. GO HAWKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't see the program, but I've read the book by the same title. Great read if you want to learn how the game as we know it today came into being.

My favorite part of the whole thing was when Richard Sherman said "(Kaepernick) thought that was gonna be a touchdown, too. That would have been his third touchdown in three years against the Seattle Seahawks. So that would have been a feat.
But it was his seventh interception against the Seattle Seahawks. And once again, at the end of the game — trying to throw a fade to Crabtree — it's like, two years in a row, your season ends the same way. You would think he would learn."

LMAO!!!!!

I really enjoyed the part about the 2012 Divisional loss. It was a great way to start the show because that is where it started. Pretty cool how both Pete and RW3 were already thinking about 2013 as they were on the bus right after the Atlanta loss. Both thinking Super Bowl for 2013. That speaks volumes to how both are wired, especially RW3.

One thing that also stood out to me was how it was the Defense that let the team down in the end that day against Atlanta, not being able to hold that lead in the last minute. Last year was the D making their statement to answer the questions of that game. They answered with one of the best seasons ever by a defense, and exclamation marked it by shutting down the greatest offense of all time during the regular season.

Oh, and they made that one little play in the NFC Championship that is now probably the best play in Seahawks history, the one that ended up winning them the Super Bowl.

Being a long time fan and suffering through all the lean years like a lot of us have done, the way they did it last year, was so worth the wait. It was no fluke, they deserved it, truly were the best "team" in the game, finally had a Defense that was dominating, had a franchise QB, a smashmouth RB, a bunch of low draft picks and UDFA's that had chips on their shoulder. They were a brash, cocky, confident, outspoken bunch not afraid to let people know who they were. They were good/dominant in all 3 phases of the game. And the "good" part could be "great" this year (the offense).

Simply made all of us proud to be 'Hawks fans.

But now, time for me to put 2013 in the "Rearviewmirror" (one of my fav PJ songs).....just like this team has mentioned throughout all of preseason, only looking forward. Hoping to make 2014 even more special.

I would love to watch it but, at least on my computer, it's the glitchiest thing I have ever seen. It's like trying to watch video on a dial up modem. Maybe too much traffic?
